School zone alert sign for westbound Mt Hope for Lewton School is flashing 24/7.

Rivertrail wayfinding sign was removed? Where did it go? I've had friends call me from this point asking how to get to MSU, Old Town, etc.

The temporary sidewalk that swerves to the east around the bridge closure is a very welcome facility for rivertrail users to go around the reconstrucition project.
However to use this sidewalk at Saginaw St. on the south side of the intersection with a wheeled vehicle, (bike OR wheelchair) to continue to or from Center Street, an awkward move is required. The location needs a curb cut directly in line with the path, or an additional triangle of concrete so that we can ride up the existing curb cut, slightly offset to the east, and continue onto the sidewalk without having to cross on the grass.

This is with recognition that the official detour is to proceed an extra block to the signal at Cedar Street. Everyone will use Center St. because with NO motorized traffic at that point in Saginaw Street, it's direct and safe.

The Green Leaf Clinic is not being a good neighbor. The establishment has re-erected their signs between the sidewalk and curb on the northwest corner of Homes and S. Washington. In fact, there are now more signs than ever.

Regardless of the business specialty, let's get these signs removed. It makes the area look blighted -- are we're trying hard to get this place cleaned up. And it looked nice without the signs.

(The attached file is a file photo, but the signs are the same.)

Noticed today that the BFC sign at this corner has been knocked to the ground possibly by a semi-truck cutting the corner too tightly or other accident. The sign appears to be undamaged other than having been knocked apart and fallen to the ground.

Construction worker fine sign poorly placed on MI Ave near Fairview. Sidewalk is barley passable. Was difficult with a stroller. Would be impossible in a wheelchair.

Some graffiti sticker was seen on a sign at NW corner of MLK and Genessee.

No parking here to corner sign on Maple Street (aprox 20 meters west of intersection with Verlinden) has been hit by a car (or backed into). The sign post is twisted and bent and the sign is no longer upright or facing the right direction.

Street light isn't working. has a deaf child area sign on the pole. corner of Jessop and Hunter Blvd.

Crossing guard states that the crosswalk button on the N. W. corner of Jolly and Cedar for the Jolly crossing is not working correctly. It only comes on when you push the button, when you remove your finger the light goes off.

Stop sign at the corner of Jenison and Ottowa heading north has been spraypainted over with "GO" in black.

Stop sign at the corner of Jenison and Ottawa heading north has been spraypainted over with "GO" in black.

From what I can see on the code compliance housing portal site this isn't a registered rental. But has had for rent signs posted in recent months.

Not registered on City Website. With rental signs up in the last few months.

Articles of trash on the curb in front of this house. Someone recently put a for sale sign on this long vacant house and placed some articles of useless junk (including a giant ancient TV). There is no apparent means for this stuff to be removed (i.e. city sticker).

There are two cement-based-temporary style signs currently placed in the road in front of the Lansing Board of Water and Light. They state something to the effect that the area is only for LBWL allowed vehicles.

It appears to be open and unmetered parking which is would indicate the area is accessible to anyone. The road is paved along Cedar and also appears to be paved in this cut-out which is also curbed.

My question is this. Is this cut-out deaded or legally restricted to LBWL access?

There is a "no parking" sign that used to be on the east side of the road in front of the fenced 324 S Hayford. It seems someone took the sign down but left it in the vicinity. Since then it has been laying against the fence in overgrowth. It should either be removed or reinstalled.

The Green Leaf Clinic has perpetually placed signs between the sidewalk and curb around Holmes and S. Washington Ave. For a low cost, and individual can "Get Legal."

Let's get these removed. Regardless of the shop's specialty, the signs are a violation and have been in this location for more than a year.

426 W. Berry has been red-tagged since 2008. And every year it's the same old story, tall grass and unshoveled sidewalks. The city has repeatedly cited this house. Lately, someone came by and mowed the law, piling up the clippings behind the house for rodents to fester in.

Yesterday, a contractor's van was spotted backed in the driveway and the noises of construction could be heard inside. According to the city's website, no permits have been pulled for construction.

The construction is a sign of progress, but the homeowners on West Berry Avenue want to ensure that the owners of 426 W. Berry are constructing everything to code. We suspect this property is going to be rented soon, so we want to sure it is thoroughly inspected and registered.

There's nothing worse than finding out that most of your neighborhood homes are rentals, especially when the landlords and renters don't do a thing to maintain the property. There's no vested interest with renters.

This house looks nice, but don't be fooled or ghouled -- it was recently cited for weeds. According to the city's website, this home does not have a rental certificate. With the "For Rent" sign in the front yard, it's safe to say it's an unregistered rental.

It's the same old story around town -- a foreclosure turns into a rental. But this story has some interesting twists.

3201 S. Washington is a HUD-owned home; however, it appears to have been rented out. Around September, I noticed there was a "For Rent" sign. Now there are tenants -- and they're using their lawn as a parking lot.

Here are the issues:

A.) Let's figure out if a HUD-owned home can be rented. If so, then that's how it goes. It's odd that HUD can sell a home and then that buyer can immediately turn it around as a rental.

B.) Let's stop the lawn parking. It contributes to a blighted area.

Thank you!

No parking sign fallen over

The boulevard should be removed from this corner and a left turn lane and arrow light installed there. This corner is a nightmare. Traffic controlled lights are OK if they are programmed correctly. There are only a few in Lansing that operate correctly. Others must have been designed for horse and buggy days.

The bike "racks" outside the City Market are all getting loose at the base and several are leaning over like the Tower of Pisa. These units are really poorly designed bike racks and should just be replaced with more effective bike parking racks. These encourage people to lock their front wheels only which puts the rest of their bikes at risk, or the bikes can simply fall over and damage the wheel.
